J. Gold is everywhere right now...

...In James Rainey's L.A. Times column L.A.'s man with the golden palate, which also mentions Jitlada's beloved Jazz. Ah, so Rainey is who is was eating with when he tweeted about 101 Noodle the other day!

...at the Culinary Historians of Southern California talk next Saturday at the Downtown L.A. public library. Gold will talk about "The Rise of Regional Cuisines in the San Gabriel Valley," plus, it's free!Saturday Sept. 12 at 10:30 a.m., reception following.

...at a benefit Oct. 10 for the Zocalo Public Square lecture series, he will host Jonathan Gold's Union Station cocktail party. O.K., at $300, this one's a little pricey for most of us, but the food is from Cut, Providence, Palate, Rivera, Mozza, Comme Ca and Church & State, so it doesn't get much better than that.

...plus, you can help support Taking the Reins, which gives high-risk girls the chance to work with horses, by buying a $20 raffle ticket for a chance to go out for a meal with Gold.
